Description
I’ve made peace with the endless construction on Flynn Av - I get it. But today a giant truck emerged and has been idleing endlessly. I asked the driver if he could please stop idleing and he said he can’t. I asked how low they would be doing. That and he said “all day”. Um.... why? Please stop this. Thank you!
